This is a pure disconnecting means: it provides no overload or short-circuit protection (no trip unit, no voltage trigger, no undervoltage release). It is designed for applications where you need a manual load-break switch with visible isolation, not a circuit breaker. That simplifies panel design in warm enclosures or near heat-generating equipment. The 690 V AC / 500 V DC rated operating voltage covers most industrial line voltages (400 V, 480 V, 600 V class) with headroom. Mechanical service life is 15,000 operating cycles typical — adequate for a disconnecting switch used for infrequent isolation or maintenance lockout, not for daily motor starting. The 3VA1163-1AA36-0AA0 uses a front-terminal connection for the main circuit, with a 76.2 mm width (roughly 3 inches — standard for a 3-pole MCCB-style device on DIN rail). Depth is 70 mm, height 130 mm. It accepts a motor drive as an optional extension (ordered separately). No auxiliary contacts or auxiliary releases are included; if you need signaling or shunt trip, this base variant does not carry them.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1163-1AA36-0AA0 SENTRON Switch Disconnector, 63 A","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1163-1AA36-0AA0 switch disconnector in MCCB design, 63 A continuous rating, 3-pole, 690 V AC.

A 3VA1110-5ED36-0AA0 is a molded-case circuit breaker with thermal-magnetic protection. If your circuit requires overcurrent protection, you need the breaker variant; if you only need a load-break disconnect with visible isolation, this switch disconnector is the correct choice."},{"question":"Where can I buy 3VA1163-1AA36-0AA0?","answer":"Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels.
